58 Demon Cavalry

(City of Towers)

At night, the saint and Ellanch swaggered through the city in an open carriage, and the saint seemed to enjoy the feeling of being with the people, and the smile of the saint did not stop for a moment from the moment she started.

And Ellanch still seems to be worried about Anka.

Seeing that Alanch had been worried, the saint asked, "Elanch, do you want to eat?" ”

Alanch cast a gaze at the Holy Maiden and was suddenly held in her arms, and Elanch felt the warmth of the sun and did not struggle.

After a while, the carriage stopped at the entrance of the theater, and countless people gathered around the saint to cheer when they saw the arrival of the saint.

Seeing that the people were being stopped by the paladins, the holy woman said, "Remove the defenses!" Don't let me influence everyone. ”

"But Lady Virgin, we need to protect you."

"If I do something that satisfies the people, then they have no reason to hurt me, they will protect me."

In this way, the paladins nervously walked in with the saint.

The place where the saint watched the performance was a high platform, and the audience all turned around and cheered excitedly after seeing the saint.

And the holy woman waved her hand to greet them.

After taking her seat, Alanch said, "Miss Saint is very popular! ”

"It's okay! Compared with the former emperor, it should be far worse. ”

During the intermission of the opera, a young man in a brown coat was allowed to meet the Holy Maiden.

The young man took off his top hat and bowed.

"Don't bother, tell me what you saw in those villages!"

The young man was stunned for a moment when he saw Elanci and asked, "Did the Holy Maiden hire an adventurer to go to the Charon Forest?" ”

"It's not that I hired him as my friend."

"He's honored then."

The young man then took his seat, and Ellanch fled to the side because of the smell of alcohol.

"My Majesty, I have found that the villagers who live in the forest are prone to a red, swollen and painful disease, and my long-term research has found that it is a parasite that the villagers have contracted when they are injured in the wild or when they drink untreated river water."

As he spoke, the young man pulled out two jars filled with liquid, one containing one for eggs and one for an adult.

"So do you have any defense against this parasite?"

"This bug is reproductive, and has a high survival rate in extreme environments, and I hope you will allow me to do experiments at Northern College."

"Of course, I'll give you an area there to experiment."

When the young man was about to leave, the saint left him behind and allowed him to watch the opera with her.

"Holy Maiden, you are really close to the people!"

The saint shook her head in modesty.

Towards the end of the opera, a poisoned arrow with a cold light shoots out from the back curtain.

After Alanci fended off a sneak attack, the assassin was caught by the paladins around him, and the saint got up in surprise and picked up Elanci to check if he was injured.

After seeing Alan Xi hold the poisoned arrow, the saint exhaled.

As a result, after a while, Ellanch convulsed and stuck out her tongue.

"What's going on?"

The young man was surprised after examining the poisoned arrow, and said, "This is the poison of a poisonous snake, and it seems that it is coated with the entire arrow, so she accidentally absorbed some of it after holding the poisoned arrow." ”

As he spoke, the young man took out some medicinal powder and began to make medicine on the spot.

The young man watched as the Holy Maiden used the healing technique on Elan Xi and said, "My lord, it is useless, even the strongest healer in record cannot eradicate this poison so quickly, we should let it lie down and prepare the operating environment in the event of first aid." ”

Suddenly, the Holy Maiden caressed Elanhi's hands, and there was a flash of light, and the young man's hand stopped, and after a while, Elanhi regained her vitality after spitting out dirty blood, while the Holy Maiden leaned weakly back in her chair.

The young man asked, "May I ask what is going on?" ”

The saint said: "This is one of my abilities, I can heal by mobilizing my life force, or thanks to Miss Elanci, who is a wyvern whose vitality is stronger than that of humans, she didn't let me fall directly to the ground after being healed." ”

The young man looked at Alanxi and opened Alanxi's mouth and said, "There is indeed no toxin." ”

Elanhi asked the other party and said, "Don't touch it! ”

Then the paladin walked in and said, "My lord, let's go!" ”

The holy woman nodded, then said goodbye to the young man who was sitting on the ground and did not react, and picked up Elanch and left.

(Plains)

When it was Anka's turn to keep vigil, the leader walked over and asked, "Do you think demons are stronger than humans?" ”

Ankh shook his head and said, "Demons are also strong and weak. ”

"How powerful do humans need to be to defeat them?"

"I don't know."

Suddenly, Anka, who was standing on the sentry post, asked, "If you are a demon fighting, what should you do now?" ”

"Surprise attacks or deliberate retreats to get the enemy deep into the trap."

"Is there a place to hide nearby?"

"There is a nameless valley in the north."

"Can we get around?"

"What do you mean?"

"It's midnight, and they still haven't attacked, so I guess they're preparing to retreat in batches to lure us into a trap, and if we don't wait for them when the sun rises in the Northern Valley, then we can still sneak up and retreat from there."

The team leader hesitated for a moment and then said, "I'll wake them up." ”

Then they galloped to the valley in the north, and when they went around to the top of the valley, they found that the valley had been carved out of a large number of fortifications, and there were all kinds of traps on the ground and on the mountainside.

The team leader said, "Your Excellency, I have to say that your acumen is very strong. ”

Ankh asked, "Is it normal if there are no demons here at the level of war?" ”

The leader shook his head and pointed to the fortifications and said, "You see that there are traces of people here who have been there for a long time, and looking at the headquarters they built on the mountainside, the underground storage facilities where the grain has not been completely consumed, they should be ready to live here permanently." ”

The team leader muttered, "It's strange that they have given up here?" ”

Ankh guessed, "Could it be that they are also at odds with the demons, and that they are only fighting a part of us now?" ”

The team leader looked at Anka in shock.

"How can it be that just a part of it makes us so hard?"

"It's just my guess, after all, I don't feel any powerful force in it."

Ankka suddenly said, "I have a plan. ”

After that, Anka patted the stone wall and looked at the leader, who smiled.

Just as the sun was rising, the leader led a surprise attack on the unprepared demon camp with the remaining cavalry.

The team leader kept provoking: "Coward, come here!" ”

The demons quickly gathered and chased after the leader, and dozens of demon cavalry pressed behind the leader like a burning storm.

The demon was also alert when he saw himself being led to the front of the valley, and did not continue to move forward.

Ankh appeared behind them at some point and brandished the magic sword to continue to sneak up and slaughter the demon cavalry, and the unorderly cavalry was driven into the valley in one go.

After the demons entered the valley, a boulder blocked their way, and countless rolling stones tumbled down the mountain, followed by various arrows and nets thrown downward.

In an instant, the demons suffered heavy losses, completely losing their sharpness, and after an hour-long attack, this time the attack ended with a demon leader surrendering.
